-- American International Group is preparing to pay next week millions of dollars more in bonuses to dozens of corporate executives, a source familiar with the development said.
AIG has been talking with Washington's newly-appointed compensation czar Kenneth Feinberg about the bonuses, which are due to be paid on July 15, said the source.
The company is reviewing its compensation plans with Washington as it tries to avoid the national furor set off by $165 million in retention bonuses paid to employees of a financial products unit in March. Much of AIG's $99 billion in losses last year stemmed from derivatives written by that unit.
Feinberg was appointed last month to oversee the compensation of top executives at seven firms that have received large federal bailouts. CONT...
The most transformative activity that you can do is not an activity. The truth often appears paradoxical.
But throughout the ages mystics and seers of every great religion and spiritual movement have understood that magnificent human potential rests in the zero point of spirituality. Science is beginning to understand the amount of energy that can be harnessed from a vacuum but mystics have known of the fantastic potentiality of human development that is harnessed from stillness.
If you spend time tapping into the potentiality of quietness, you won't be disappointed. First your consciousness or being will begin to transform from a "me" consciousness into a "we" consciousness. Then your life will begin to transform into a powerful source of Love and Compassion in the world.
The stillness or the zero point of being is the source of life. When we reconnect to that source we gain access to the power of life itself. That power will activate us into working and caring for life. Those that want to change the world have within them the potential to change their consciousness, which will transform their world. That fantastic potential of being unfolds from the source of life found in the quiet mind.
The power of Being Still costs nothing and has no-thing to offer. Just a potential of being that is more transformative than any amount of education, material wealth, or any other thing that the world prizes.
It is your birthright as a member of humanity, if you wish to return to the source.
Matt came to me because his doctor couldn't reduce his LDL cholesterol.
His doctor had prescribed Zocor (simvastatin), Lipitor, Crestor, even pravastatin, all of which resulted in incapacitating muscle aches and weakness within a week of starting. No surprise, Matt had a jaundiced view of statin drugs.
We started out by characterizing his lipoprotein patterns:
--LDL 155 mg/dl
--72% of LDL was small LDL, a moderately severe pattern. (This means that small LDL comprised 112 mg/dl of the total 155 mg/dl LDL; large LDL comprised 43 mg/dl--small LDL was the problem.)
--HDL 42 mg/dl --Triglycerides 133 mg/dl
--No lipoprotein(a)
Beyond lipoproteins, Matt proved severely deficient in vitamin D with a starting level of 18 ng/ml.
Matt's doctor had advised that he avoid salt, as his blood pressure had been borderline high. His thyroid assessment disclosed a TSH of 3.89 mIU/ml with thyroid hormones free T3 and free T4 in the lower half of the normal range.
I therefore asked Matt to:
--Eliminate wheat, cornstarch, and sugars to reduce small LDL --Add iodine --Supplement 6000 units of an oil-based vitamin D preparation --Take fish oil to provide at least 1800 mg EPA + DHA per day --Take Armour Thyroid 1 grain per day
Several months later on this program, Matt had a repeat basic lipid panel:
--LDL 82 mg/dl--a 47% reduction
--HDL 52 mg/dl a 24% increase
--Triglycerides 60 mg/dl--a 55% decrease
In addition, vitamin D was 66 ng/ml, TSH was <1.0>

Washington- After two years of brutal government repression and destruction of their homeland, the Ngöbe Indians of western Panama won a major victory Thursday as the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights called on Panama to suspend all work on a hydroelectric dam that threatens the Ngöbe homeland. The Chan-75 Dam is being built across the Changuinola River by the country's government and a subsidiary of the Virginia-based energy giant AES Corporation.
The Commission's decision was the result of a petition filed last year by the Ngöbe after AES-Changuinola began bulldozing houses and farming plots. When the Ngöbe protested the destruction of their homes, the government sent in riot police who beat and arrested villagers, including women and children, and then set up a permanent cordon around the community. In addition to threatening the community, the dam will irreversibly harm the nearby La Amistad UN Biosphere Reserve.
"We are thrilled to have the Commission take these measures to protect Ngöbe communities," said Ellen Lutz, executive director of Cultural Survival and lead counsel for the Ngöbe. "We are hopeful that this will help the government of Panama and AES recognize their obligation to respect Ngöbe rights."
The Commission - a body of the Organization of American States - is still considering the Ngöbe's petition and issued this injunction, called precautionary measures, to prevent any further threat to the community and the environment while the Commission deliberates on the merits of the case.
Specifically, the Commission called on the government to suspend all construction and other activities related to its concession to AES-Changuinola to build and administer the Chan-75 Dam and abutting nationally protected lands along the Changuinola River.
In addition to Chan-75, for which land clearing, roadwork, and river dredging are already well underway, the order covers two other proposed dam sites upstream. The Commission further called upon the government of Panama to guarantee the Ngöbe people's basic human rights, including their rights to life, physical security, and freedom of movement, and to prevent violence or intimidation against them, which have been typical of the construction process over the past two years. The Commission required the government to report to it in 20 days on the steps it has taken to comply with the precautionary measures.
Chan-75 would inundate four Ngöbe villages that are home to approximately 1,000. Another 4,000 Ngöbe living in neighboring villages would be affected by the destruction of their transportation routes, flooding of their agricultural plots, lack of access to their farmlands, and reduction or elimination of fish that are an important protein source in their diet. It would also open up their territories to non-Ngöbe settlers.
The dam also will cause grave environmental harm to the UNESCO-protected La Amistad Biosphere Reserve, an international World Heritage Site that is upriver from the dam site. Scientists believe that there is a high risk of losing important fish species that support the reserve's wildlife, including several endangered species, because the dam will destroy their migration route.
"The Panamanian government must follow the precautionary measures issued by the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights and prevent further human-rights violations and environmental damage," said Jacki Lopez, staff attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity, which submitted an amicus curiae to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights in support of the Ngöbe.
The Ngöbe people's situation was the subject of a report by UN Special Rapporteur James Anaya, made on May 12, 2009. Anaya concluded that the government ignored its obligation under international law to consult with the communities and seek their free, prior, and informed consent before moving ahead with the construction project.

Heads of state at the G8 summit in Italy were taken by surprise yesterday when Chinese President Hu Jintao suddenly decided to return home to deal with the ongoing crisis in Xinjiang. Hopes that China could play an important role in discussions on the global financial crisis were punctured by developments in Xinjiang, which underscore the country’s escalating social tensions.
So far no world leader has publicly condemned the massive crackdown by Chinese security forces in Urumqi or challenged Beijing’s claim that its heavily-armed troops are there to maintain social order and prevent further ethnic conflict.
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said: “We know there is a long history of tension and discontent, but the most immediate matter is to bring the violence to a conclusion.” Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd declared: “[R]estraint is required now on the part of all parties in order to bring about a peaceful settlement to this difficulty.”
Hu was the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) secretary of Tibet and directed the bloody suppression of local protests in that region in March 1989. Within weeks of those protests, social tensions erupted nationally and were only ended with the Tiananmen Square massacre. The Xinjiang crisis has the same potential to ignite China’s social powder keg, with far-reaching implications for world capitalism.
Hu’s sudden return indicates that the CCP leadership regards the protest by Uighurs in Urumqi last Sunday and the subsequent ethnic conflicts in Xinjiang as a national crisis. Beijing is acutely conscious that the unrest among national minorities has deep social roots.
The trigger for the Urumqi protest was not in Xinjiang but Guangdong province, thousands of kilometres away, where the ruling party’s program of urging employers to use poor ethnic minorities as cheap labour has led to ethnic tensions with the Han Chinese population.
Fuelled by the Han chauvinism that has been increasingly promoted by the CCP, the tensions erupted last month into a deadly assault on Uighur workers at a major toy factory in Shaoguan city. The incident ignited pent-up anger over social inequality and ethnic discrimination among the Uighur masses, who are among the most oppressed sections of the Chinese working class.
A comment in the official People’s Daily on Wednesday presented the unrest in Xinjiang as a matter of violating “law and order” and called for the rebuilding of the state’s authority in order to restore social order. However, it is unclear how the regime can achieve this except through the use of force, which will only inflame the situation.
The state-controlled media has continued to spread horrifying and bloody stories of Uighur mobs attacking Han civilians. Li Zhi, Urumqi’s CCP secretary, declared yesterday that while Uighur university students were misled and should be treated leniently, “those who committed crimes with cruel means” would be executed.
Li’s message revealed the regime’s class orientation, similar to that which animated the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre. While some students may be treated leniently, workers and the urban poor, depicted as “mobs” or “hooligans”, deserve brutal punishment or death. Exiled Uighur groups have claimed that 600-800 Uighur protestors have been killed by government troops and 3,000 arrested.
The heads of China’s police-state apparatus were in Urumqi yesterday for a show of force as thousands of paramilitary troops flooded into the resource-rich province. Police officers in riot gear marched through the city, chanting slogans calling for social stability. Helicopters circled overhead, while armoured vehicles equipped with machine guns patrolled the streets.
Inspecting 2,000 armed police in the Peoples Square, the paramilitary police national chief, Wu Shuangzhan said yesterday was the “most crucial day” for restoring order. In a televised visit to a hospital where injured police were being treated, public security minister Meng Jiangzhu reiterated that Sunday’s protest was a violent crime provoked by separatists headed by exiled Uighur leader Rebiya Kadeer.
On Tuesday, local CCP secretary Li publicly persuaded Han protestors to return home, because the authorities would “execute the murderers”. As scuffles between Uighurs and Han continued in parts of the city, Li threatened to punish any law breakers, regardless of their ethnic background. Some Han aggressors against Uighurs were arrested on that day.
However, the regime’s security measures have only encouraged backward elements in the Han communities, who have called for revenge against innocent Uighur residents. Media reports have shown Han residents carrying clubs, steel bars and other sharp objects in the name of protecting themselves.
The Associated Press reported fear in the Uighur areas: “When someone yelled, ‘The Han are coming!’ children scampered indoors and women ran shrieking through a backstreet market... Within seconds, the men armed themselves with spears stashed behind doors and under market stands... Piles of rocks were placed across the street for ammunition.”
The reality is that Uighurs have become second-class citizens in China. The Financial Times yesterday reported the conditions in Balikun, a poor Uighur district in Urumqi, where “dirty alleys and blackened concrete housing blocks ... are a far cry from the new residential compounds springing up across the city,” mainly for Han residents. A local youth told the newspaper: “Many young people do nothing at all. Regular jobs are hard to come by.”
Most residents in the district come from rural and less developed parts of Xinjiang. The majority of Muslim women are veiled, and speak little Mandarin Chinese, while most men work in local slaughterhouses or are unemployed.
The expanding construction and mining industries in Xinjiang tend to hire Han workers, rather than local Uighurs, who are less trained and have difficulty communicating with management. Small retail and hospitality businesses operated by Han immigrants often overrun local Uighur competitors.
The government’s policy of encouraging Uighurs to become migrant workers in eastern provinces is not helping ethnic integration. Far away from their home villages, their peasant and Muslim backgrounds come into sharp conflict with bustling urban capitalism, where they confront harsh labour discipline and long hours in dirty sweatshops.
The plight of Uighur workers is bound up with the enormous class conflicts created by the CCP’s pro-capitalist policies. CONT...
Stimulant drugs such as Ritalin provide no long-term benefit in the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), according to the latest findings of the ongoing Multimodal Treatment Study of Children with ADHD (MTA), published in the Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry.
According to previous analysis of MTA data, stimulant drugs do improve the social functioning and reduce symptoms of inattention and hyperactivity in children with ADHD for the first year of treatment. In the current analysis, however, researchers followed 485 children for eight years and found that children who remained on medication for that entire time showed no improvement in symptoms over those who had stopped taking the drugs.
"If you put a child on medication, he or she is far better right at that time. The question for parents is: Is this going to make a benefit for my child long term?" said researcher William Pelham, of the University of Buffalo. "The answer is no. Behavioral treatments are going to have much better benefit in the long term." CONT...
I was blown away by the latest revelation that the CIA lied to Congress.
What is going on?
Are we going to discover that politicians lie and that governments misinform its citizens?It is very troubling to know that the spooks that lie for a living lie. But I am sure that doesn't mean they are all bad. Just a few bad apples I am sure.
-- In May, at a point when congressional Republicans and their amen corner in the media were attempting to defend the Bush-Cheney administration's torture regime, their primary defense was: Pelosi knew.
The spin held that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, as a member of the House Intelligence Committee, had in 2002 been secretly briefed about the use of harsh interrogation techniques on terror suspects.
Pelosi accused the CIA of "misleading the Congress of the United States."
Republican senators screamed.
"It's outrageous that a member of Congress should call a terror-fighter a liar," howled Missouri Senator Kit Bond, the vice chair of the Senate intelligence committee. "It seems the playbook is, blame terror-fighters. We ought to be supporting them."
CIA officials denied lying to Congress and the American people, and that seemed to be that. "Let me be clear: It is not our practice or policy to mislead Congress," said CIA Director Leon Panetta. That is against our laws and values."
But, now, we learn that, in late June, Panetta admitted in secret testimony to Congress that the agency had concealed information and misled lawmakers repeatedly since 2001.

The Leaders of the world are fat and happy representing the few wealthy that control the planet.They eat, drink, and are happy while others die because of their excesses and their greed.
World leaders have enjoyed a five-course meal on the eve of a G8 summit on tackling world food shortages, a menu released by a summit source showed.
The leaders will be joined by representatives of African countries for Friday's session at the G8 summit focusing on food, security and development issues.
The British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said earlier this week, "A hunger emergency looms and the world must act."
However on Thursday night -- the night before the talks -- at a dinner hosted by the Italian President Giorgio Napolitano, the leaders dined on a warm tomato salad with cheese followed by hand-made macaroni with ragu sauce, roast lamb with beans and summer truffles with eggplant, green beans and roast potatoes, cheese and a sweet pizza dessert made with almonds.
Meanwhile, on a separate menu prepared by two-star Michelin Chef Nico Romito, the leaders' partners were able to choose between four starters before lamb with warm potato salad for the main course and hot and cold chocolate with fennel for dessert.
Non-governmental organizations have been bitterly denouncing the current three-day G8 summit for the inadequate emphasis on African development.
Oxfam, an NGO lobbying at G8, said that poverty and inequality are getting worse in the developing countries as a result of the global economic crisis. Poor families are eating less, being evicted from their homes, and having to pull children out of school.
All of this is exacerbated by the effects of high food prices, the failure of rich countries to deliver on their aid promises, and the growing harmful impact of climate change, Oxfam said.
Seldom does a crime scene have so clear a smoking gun. A two-page presidential memorandum of Feb. 7, 2002, leaves no room for uncertainty regarding the "decider" on torture. His broad-stroke signature made torture official policy.
This should come as no surprise. You see, the Feb. 7, 2002, memorandum has been posted on the Web since June 22, 2004, when then-White House Counsel Alberto Gonzales mistakenly released it, along with other White House memoranda.
The title seemed innocent enough "Humane Treatment of al Qaeda and Taliban Detainees" but in the body of the memo President George W. Bush authorized his senior aides to withhold Geneva Convention protections from suspected al-Qaeda and Taliban detainees.
Like Shakespeare, the media seem harshest on the lawyers, including Texans Gonzales and William J. Haynes II (Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's lawyer), who later outdid themselves trying to make torture legal.
What gets lost in the woodwork is this: Banal as their ex-post-facto "justification" for torture was, the lawyers were not the deciders.
After the decider-in-chief, the key decision makers were the eight addressees of the Feb. 7 memorandum: Vice President Dick Cheney, Secretary of State Colin Powell, Rumsfeld, Attorney General John Ashcroft, White House chief of staff Andrew Card, CIA Director George Tenet, National Security aide Condoleezza Rice, and Joint Chiefs Chairman Richard Myers.
During the Q & A after a recent Myers talk in Washington, I asked him what he did after he had read the President's memo on ignoring Geneva. The tone of his non-answer was this: If the President wanted to dismiss Geneva, what was a mere Chairman of the Joint Chiefs to do?
In his memoir, Eyes on the Horizon, he tries to blame the lawyers: "By relying so heavily on just the lawyers, the President did not get the broader advice on these matters that he needed."
Myers and the other seven addressees might these days be called derivative deciders - or, more simply, accomplices. There is not a shred of evidence that any of the Gang of Eight gave the slightest consideration to resigning, rather than carry out the President's decision.
They elected to "just follow orders," a defense dismissed out of hand at the post-WWII Nuremberg Tribunal on war crimes. Together with the lawyer-advisers, the derivative deciders provide abundant proof that the "banality of evil" did not die with Adolf Eichmann and other functionaries of the Third Reich.
But the buck stops - actually, in this case, it began - with President Bush. Senate Armed Services Committee leaders Carl Levin and John McCain on Dec. 11, 2008, released the executive summary of a report, approved by the full committee without dissent, concluding that Bush's Feb. 7, 2002, memorandum "opened the door to considering aggressive techniques."
Here is Conclusion Number One of the Senate committee report: "Following the President's determination, techniques such as waterboarding, nudity, and stress positions...were authorized for use in interrogations of detainees in U.S. custody."
It is essential that those responsible for torture be held to account. This is not about "policy differences." It is about crimes. More important still, it's about holding fast to our Constitution and enforcing accountability in the executive branch.
There was a time when we regularly looked to folks from Texas to defend the law. What would we have done, for example, without the late Barbara Jordan, African American jurist and member of the House Judiciary Committee, who spoke out with memorable eloquence in arguing that President Richard Nixon had to be held to account. He could not get away with placing himself over the law.
Jordan and most of her committee colleagues voted out articles of impeachment against Nixon, leaving him little choice but to resign or be impeached. Speaking to the House, Jordan described Nixon as a President "swollen with power and grown tyrannical." She added:
"My faith in the Constitution is whole; it is complete; it is total. I am not going to sit here and be an idle spectator to the diminution, the subversion, the destruction of the Constitution."
Barbara Jordan was a Texan through and through. She was also, above all, an American patriot. I suspect she may be rolling over in her grave at the prospect of a chief executive escaping accountability for approving torture. CONT....
In an inspiring message given during an interview, Honduran President Manuel Zelaya explains Why the Coup Happened and Who the Bad Guys Are.
Grant
Excerpts from an Interview with Honduran President Manuel Zelaya on Democracy Now "....I came to power with a very clear programmatic and ideological platform, to empower citizens in their rights, to empower them economically, socially and culturally and also politically, all the reforms I have proposed are meant to give more power to the population. I do not believe in elites. I don’t believe in military elites or economics elites. I believe that it is the people who have the strength to make the changes. That is why I called my campaign “citizen power." The first law I made was that a citizen participation and the law I was applying with the survey was for citizen participation. We helped the poor along with the First Lady, we have reduced poverty by 10% we’ve had the country growing by 7% economically. So, there is a reactionary group in Honduras. Honduras is controlled by a group of 10 families that control the entire economy. So, they have been jealous of my actions in favor of development for themselves and their families. But they refuse to allow change or transformation. They looked for a political arm and a military arm to stage a coup d’etat."
"...The bad guys always join together. But there are more of us good people and we’re also united and we will win out over them. So don’t worry about that. I need to tell you I have to leave for Costa Rica and I am grateful for your interview, and I will continue to support you. The only system I believe in is democracy. It is the political system that gives political rights to the citizenry. Human rights guarantee our freedoms, but the political system we must support is democracy. If we allowed armies, drug, trafficking elites or economic elites or international mafia, even the transnational corporations to impose governments or presidents on us by force, we will be losing five decades of democratic reform in America. President Obama has a firm position and I hope it will remain so until we resolve this problem so it will serve as an example. So that a fractious group of military men never again break into the home of a president and without trying him first, without taking into court but rather capturing him and then wanting to try him. This should not happen."
At least 50 people have been killed in Iraq in what is being described as the bloodiest day in the country since US troops pulled back from cities and towns.
Two suicide bombers struck the northern town of Tal Afar, killing at least 34 people, while in Baghdad, the capital, at least seven people died when two bombs hidden in market rubbish went off.
In the evening, a further nine people were killed in a blast in the Kasra district of the capital.
The number of people wounded in Thursday's attacks exceeds 125. CONT...
Five years ago today, the international court of justice in The Hague published its advisory opinion on Israel's separation wall in the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT). The keenly awaited verdict, requested by the UN's general assembly, was clear: Israel's wall is illegal, it must be removed and adequate compensation paid.
The wall's illegality, and Israel's obligation to dismantle the structure and pay damages for the consequences of the wall thus far, were all agreed by the judges by a margin of 14-1. (The ICJ also accepted the use of the term "wall", since "other expressions" are "no more accurate".) There was also confirmation that Israel's settlements were "a flagrant violation" of the convention, established "in breach of international law" (contrast this with the mealy-mouthed nitpicking over outposts and "freezes" by Barack Obama and Binyamin Netanyahu). Overall, the court found that the route of the wall threatened to create "de facto annexation", with the wall itself described as severely impeding "the exercise by the Palestinian people of its right to self-determination".
At the time, the ICJ decision was hailed by Palestinians and dismissed by the Israeli government. As Yasser Arafat described it as a "victory for the Palestinian people", a spokesman for the then prime minister Ariel Sharon, Raanan Gissin, opined that "after all the rancour dies, this resolution will find its place in the garbage can of history".
Both the US and UK had opposed the entire process, on the odd grounds that the UN's main judicial body for settling legal disputes was not "the appropriate forum to resolve what is a political issue". In the words of Jack Straw, it was better not to "embroil" the ICJ "in a heavily political bilateral dispute".
This opposition was rare – later that same month, the general assembly voted by 150 to six in support of the ICJ opinion. The decision was also welcomed by the likes of Oxfam and Amnesty International, with Oxfam's director adding that the ruling was a "step in the right direction" but needed "further action" by the international community.
